How You Probably Originally Found Out About Alpha Fuel

Most guys learn about Alpha Fuel (and others like Apha Cut HD, Alpha Muscle, etc.) by coming across what appears to be an ESPN or Mens Health article.

Does this look familiar?

I thought so.

So throughout this article it says that celebs like Dwayne Johnson (The Rock), Gerard Butler, even Colin Kaepernick are using supplements like Alpha Fuel to completely transform their bodies.

They are doing this with none other than Alpha Fuel and some other supplement like Alpha Cut.

Telling guys that these supplements have virtually been banned from the shelves of GNC, Walmart, Walgreens, and CVS, they go on to say that you can get these 2 controversial supplements by simply paying for the shipping cost.

The page looks legit, but I’m here to tell you that it’s NOT at all.

First off, if you look at the web address, this is NOT the REAL Mens Health website.

And you’ll also see a big ADVERTISEMENT notice pinned to the top of the page.

If that wasn’t enough, if you scroll to the bottom of the page you’ll see a big disclaimer that reads like this:

All BS aside, do these products really even work?

Well let’s take a quick look at the ingredients and reviews on the Alpha Fuel website before we start making any accusations.

Ingredients in Alpha Fuel XT

Long Jack Root

Chances are if you’ve looked up various testosterone boosters, then you’ve seen the ingredient eurycoma longifolia.

This ingredient is more commonly known as Tongkat Ali and, to a lesser extent, as Long Jack Root.

Clearly, a great marketing choice on the part of the Alpha Fuel XT, Long Jack Root is one of the few proven testosterone-boosting ingredients that you can purchase over the counter.

Nettle Root

Sometimes referred to as Stinging Nettle Root, this is an ingredient that is featured in many testosterone boosting supplements but the jury is still out on whether or not it truly contributes to a direct increase in testosterone.

That’s not to say that it doesn’t have great medicinal benefits.

Nettle Root protects and promotes proper prostate health. It’s also great for inflammation as it has been shown to relieve pain in muscles and joints.

Some advocates claim that it does promote a healthy increase in testosterone; however, as mentioned before, the evidence is lacking.

Regardless, this is a terrific ingredient to have because, despite the unproven possibility of it boosting your testosterone levels, it has been proven to be a great post-workout recovery ingredient.

Tribulus Terrestris

This is an herbal remedy that has been around for a very long time.

Primarily used in ancient cultures, Tribulus Terrestris was a daily part of life for many citizens of China and India as an alternative medicine for various ailments.

Today it remains an alternative solution to conditions relating to the cardiovascular system.

It’s also taken to help with performance in the bedroom.

Tribulus Terrestris didn’t make its way to the center of the supplement world until reports of its testosterone boosting effects began popping up.

Now it’s hard to miss this ingredient in any supplement geared toward men. It’s found in literally thousands of other supplements, including ones we’ve tested like Nugenix, T90 Xplode and Testadrox.

Despite its popularity, Tribulus Terrestris does not have sufficient evidence as a testosterone booster or performance enhancer.

Piper Nigrum

More commonly known as Bioperine, this ingredient is an extract of black pepper.

Much like Nettle Root, there is no evidence that Piper Nigrum has any direct testosterone boosting effects but it is certainly a valuable ingredient.

It has been shown to enhance the absorption of other nutrients.

Essentially, whatever you eat or ingest prior to or while you take Piper Nigrum will have a greater absorption rate.

This is very important, especially for those with poor or lacking digestive systems.

Again, evidence does not support this as a direct testosterone booster; however, it can certainly aid in the absorption of ingredients that do amplify testosterone production.

Ashwagandha

What could just be another bright orange weed growing in your backyard has been reported to have testosterone boosting properties.

Ashwagandha was the center of a study in which testosterone levels were checked before and after supplementation.

Accordingly to the results, the data from these 46 men indicated that daily supplementation of Ashwaganda for 90 days increased testosterone levels by 17%.

The catch is that the study was conducted on men who had low fertility rates.

Just like Mucuna Pruriens, this ingredient may be great for men who have very lower levels of testosterone and it may be complete ineffective for those men who are healthy. (“Ashwagandha may promote healthy testosterone production in men: Clinical data” May 23, 2014. Para.

2)

Diindolylmethane

Commonly known as DIM, this ingredient has been getting a lot of media attention lately for its supposed antioxidant benefits.

This phytonutrient has been recommended as a daily supplement as it can help reduce inflammation and fight different types of cancer in the body. What about testosterone?

DIM has been shown to help promote a healthy hormonal balance and when taken regularly, it can actually prevent testosterone from being converted into estrogen. This is definitely an ingredient you would want in an effective testosterone booster.

My Personal Results

I got a chance to try out a one month supply of Alpha Fuel XT, and I have to say I didn’t see much in the way of results.

The directions on the label state that you should take 2 capsules daily with a meal, which I did.

Now, I didn’t take a blood test or anything to determine what my actual T levels were before I started.

It sounds stupid, but to be honest it’s not really “practical” for me to take a blood test every time I take a testosterone booster.

However, I do base my experience largely in part to how it makes me feel, and if the claims on their website / the bottle match my exprience with it.

The Alpha Fuel XT official website describes the feelings of increased testosterone production, including increases in muscle size and strength, reduce body fat, and increased energy.

Well, I took it for about 2 weeks and to be honest didn’t notice any of these feelings.

There was no surge in energy, no gains in muscle mass / size, and certainly no reduced body fat.

If anything, I would say that I felt maybe a bit of an increase in libido, but nothing to write home about.

Pros and Con’s

Pros

Alpha Fuel XT has a solid line up for a testosterone-boosting supplement.

Although not every single ingredient has passed numerous clinical studies with proven effects on testosterone production, it is still a supplement with an impressive amount of researched ingredients.

Even the ones that are lacking in evidence for testosterone production are still beneficial in some way relating to health and fitness.

Cons

One of the biggest disadvantages is the cost: For a one-month supply, Alpha Fuel XT will set you back $89.95 plus shipping and handling.Another disadvantage is buying it directly through the website due to the auto-ship program that you are enrolled in.

Please see the “Where to Buy” section for further explanation.

3 BIG Reasons You Shouldn’t Buy It

They use FALSE and DECEPTIVE advertising to try to get you to buy the product.

I personally didn’t see any results from it.

It’s SUPER expensive, especially when compared to most other testosterone boosters.

Where To Buy

You can purchase Alpha Fuel XT directly from the manufacturer’s website.

When you do so, you are given the offer to receive a “free” bottle of the product.

Be aware that signing up for this bottle signs you up for the auto-ship program.

The following is directly from the official website:

“To receive a 30 day supply of AlphaFuel XT you must pay a shipping and handling fee of $5.95($7.95 Canada).You can try the product Risk Free for 14 days.

After the 14 day trial period has ended you will be charged our regular price of $89.95.If you decide to cancel during the 14 day trial period, you will be required to return the bottle at your expense via an RMA number issued by customer service.If you choose not to cancel, you will be enrolled in our membership program and receive a fresh 30 day supply every 30 days for the same low price of $89.95 until you cancel."Q

You can avoid this completely by purchasing it on Amazon.They sell it there for about $50 per bottle, which includes free shipping.I would actually recommend buying it there to take advantage of the buyer protection they offer.

As far as I can tell they don’t sell Alpha Fuel XT in any stores like GNC, Walmart, Walgreens, or CVS.

Don't try this product! It will take you 2weeks to receive it and will cost you what the shipping was but by this time of two weeks they will charge you another $90 if you don't cancel it within the 2 week time period which you haven't had the product long enough to know if it works or not! So needless to say they are ripping you off.So I am hoping that you will heed this warning and not subscribe to it.

I am very disgusted with them and am writing to let them know I want my money back because I didn't order a 30 day supply I ordered the trial and am charged $100 or more.

No Stars - This product does not perform as extensively outlined in the Men's Health Life online site.I work out and eat healthy, but wanted a little boost as I am 50 yo.Tried both pills as directed and had no result.

In addition, had I known I could have purchased them on Amazon.com for half the price, I would have tried there first.Don't waste over $170 for a solution in a pill

This product may work for some.As recommended, 1 tablet did nothing for me and 2 tablets gave me a slight head ache.

After trying for 3 weeks, I called customer support.They read from a basic telephone script without deviating.

Wish I had read these reviews prior to purchase.Consider the following:

- Purchase disclaimer is buried within the website and can't be printed in full.

- Some of the consumer protections are based on your order date and others are based on product arrival date.

SupplementCritique.com is a review website. We have no affiliation with Alpha Fuel XT, and we don’t sell anything. You’ll need to contact the company you ordered from directly to address your billing issues. The number I found from their website is 800-343-9025. Give them a call.

I never ordered the Alpha Fuel, it came along as a tag along item. I cancelled the order in a timely manor. There for awhile I stopped receiving it then all of a sudden they started sending it to me again. Now they’re giving me a run around and say they will not refund my money. Anyone else out there with problems similar to mine?
Thanks
Darrell

Hey Darrell,
Try telling them you’ll report them to the Better Business Bureau and/or the State Attorney General’s office if they don’t refund you’re money. What they do is deceptive and scammy, but ultimately it’s not illegal. But they generally prefer not to have their deception publicized so they may try to appease you.

This company stole 89 dollars off my credit card after I purchased a 5.99 trial sample. I’m telling everyone to stay away from this company, plus I have reason to believe it doesn’t work. Its the cider vineger that’s cutting your appetite. A true BS trap.

I too fell for this ripoff. Once I wised upI called to cancel and they offered me a 60% discount. I said no to that, I wanted to dance a subscription I never signed up for, I was told I get charged $19 for signing up. I will decline that charge when it shows up on my statement. This is a ripoff.

I can speak for this farce of a product. They
offer two bottles of their snake medicine for
the price of shipping only. After you order it
you get two small bottles of sugar pills or
some other substance and then you notice
on your charge card you have been charged $12 Shipping, and $100 for the product plus $1.99 for
some unknown nothing. I cancelled my credit card to stop the charges and called them. They said the reason I was charged $100 plus 1.99
is because I did not cancel my supscription in
two weeks after ordering. I called them every name in the book, asked for a refund, got no satisfaction except the girl on the phone kept
saying you had two weeks to cancel your subscription.

Thanks for the article. I got lured into this subject by a Facebook post, stating that PGA great Tiger Woods had been “taken from us”, a phrase commonly used in a death notice. Shocked, I clicked the link and was taken to an article alleging that the PGA had suspended Mr ‘Woods for using Alpha Fuel. That webpage linked to a second, which babbled on and on about the claimed benefits of Alpha Fuel, saying nothing about what was in it or why it worked. Angry and a little curious, I went on Google and asked, “What is in Alpha Fuel?”, and found a link to this site.

What’s disturbing as f*** about the entire supplements industry, is that the hucksters who make these products warn us in some cover-their-arse language, to get our doctor’s advice before starting any health or exercise program, including theirs.

So HOW THE HELL IS MY DOCTOR SUPPOSED TO KNOW what Alpha Fuel will do to me, if the Alpha Fuel corporation won’t disclose what’s in it and why it works?

I work with a lot of people who suffer chronic pain from several different diseases. All of them are exhausted all the time. Most have tried every quack treatment and supplement they can find. Usually they cannot afford the quack treatments and supplements, because they are disabled and cannot hold a full-time job. They want their strength back. They want their former lives back.

I teach these people the skill of expressing themselves in writing. The patient who cannot speak out about what ails himself or herself, can get no help for a condition that nobody else can see.

Thanks for providing this online resource. Desperate people are easily swindled. There are a handful of success stories involving supplements, where someone accidentally stumbled across a supplement that actually worked, for what their particular body required, and recovered. Supplement makers refuse to participate in research, about how these beneficial effects happened, because they make most of their money by selling unnecessary supplementation to people who pay them money for supplements that aren’t actually helping them. Yet research is exactly what’s needed.

It is up to patients to rein in these supplement makers. The way we patients will do this, is by refusing to buy supplements from people who make it difficult to research their product’s ingredients.

I fell for this like a kid at a carnival barkers
spiel. Two bottles for just the shipping cost,
5.99 and 5.95 period. Trouble is used a credit
card of course and before I know it, with no
forewarning, my credit card was charged not
only the above two amounts but also $90 for something I did not want, did not order, and
did not get. There was also a separate charge
of 1.99 for muscle enhancement whatever that
is supposed to be. The entire setup is a scam
that I was foolish enough to fall for. It cost me $103.92 for two bottles of worthless pills and
had to cancel my credit card to stop them from
charging more. Take this warning and avoid
it and anything that sounds like this scam.

Crap, the stuck me good. Nearly $200 for a bottle of alpha fuel and another for the cut that I didn’t order.
After taking them for a week I began cramping and had considerable pain in my abdomen. Not 100% sure it was their product but feel fine now that I’ve stopped taking them.
Then I see two charges totaling $179! They answered first call at 10:00 pm on Christmas Eve. Too bad they only offered a 30% refund.
Silly me for falling for this scam. Wished I had looked into this before giving them my credit card number! SCAM!!!

I ordered the trial just like everyone stated and just two weeks later, no product and an $88.95 charge to my bank account. There is one difference to my story. I reported to my bank that I did not knowingly authorize them to charge my account. My bank gave me there number and told me to request a full refund and tell them if they do not or cannot comply that they will accept it as a fraudulent transaction. The customer service agent refunded me the full amount and it posted to my account within the 5 business days as promised. Now, I am out the initial $10 with no product, however I was told both orders shipped and I didn’t have to return anything. So, we’ll see what happens. If I don’t receive anything by December 15th, I’ll contact my bank to recoup my money.

Listen up guys. I am 68, and owned a 40,000 square world Gym, in Florida.
All of these over the counter supplements are complete Bullshit. I have worked out and trained some of the Top Athletes and actors in the world, and the only things that give you massive gains like this crap claims to do, are Illegal.
If you choose to go that route, it’s on you. it will come back later in life to bite you in the ass. But when you are youg dumb, and full of come, you think you have your shit together, you don’t. I have seen top bodybuilders die, drop fucking dead from HGH mixed with Test, Androl etc, after a while it’s just a matter of when not if, like owning a Harley. Hard work and diet aong with an hour a day of carduio is the only way to do it clean. But some guys just can’t build muscle most of it is genetic. A small framed guy with long thin muscles is never going to have big guns, it just is not possible, live with it, or die trying.

My advice to anyone who thinks they can get miracles to happen with a pill, is wait! Thanks to you Rob, and others like you that will do some research and find some real truths! Make sure you read all the fine print,especially if they want to auto ship you! In my experience if it says free, that says it doesn’t work, and your gonna pay for it!! I fell pray to a similar product called Garcinia Cambogia,when I signed up for a free word program. This particular so called company did not immediately disclose the auto enrollment and I was able to cancel my transaction with my credit card. If you really are interested,try to contact these bogus companies first and you should get an idea what they are all about!

Hey Brandon,
Well, no supplement is approved by the FDA because they don’t have to be. They’re not regulated like that, only pharmaceutical drugs that have been approved to treat, cure, or otherwise help a condition require FDA approval.

If you’re looking for an over the counter supplement to help with muscle growth and recovery, check out a stack of an HGH releaser called HyperGH 14X, and pair it with a creatine called Muscle Advance.

The muscle advance creatine will help with growth, and the HyperGH 14X will help with recovery. Check out my reviews of each below:

Stay away from this product!!! Customer Service is TERRIBLE!! They will not correct any mistakes they make! YOU EAT THE COST ON THEIR MISTAKE!! They will not allow a supervisor on the phone to resolve an issue you may have. ***YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED…DO NOT BUY**

Rob, yes I did use the supplement. I am already an avid 58-year-old retired firefighter who works out with great emphasis. I had no positive results, burst of energy or even definition. When I called trying to get another bottle of Alpha Cut, they sent out Alpha Fuel which I already had. When I called to correct the mistake they claimed there were no notes on my account. When I told them I had the specific date, name and confirmation number to validate my request, I was simply told “there were no notes on my account and this is as far as we as a company will take it” and they hung up. Even if it worked, I probably would not do business with someone who just wants the positive aspects of a business relationship and not willing to address the more difficult or challenging issues.

Simply stated, the product doesn’t work. It’s “snake oil” so to speak. Not only that, the company will rip you off. We paid the postage on the first two “free” bottles and soon thereafter they charged us an additional $89.90 on our credit card–for no reason. We called the company to complain and they hung up on us.

Yeah, there are lots of products that pull this scam. Make sure you’ve canceled the “subscription” that you never meant to sign up for. Otherwise, that $89.90 charge will show up on your card every month.

What a bunch of idiots this company has. They lie about every Nfl player stating they are leaving the game and then when you click on the link to read the story they promote the product. They should be in jail for doing this and anyone who buys the product is a complete idiot. Nothing but lies and false statements. ASSHOLES

This is a total rop off. Do NOT waste your money on this “Trial” bottle or Alpha Cut! They are impossible to deal with on the customer support end and a MAJOR rip off! Stay as far away from them as you can!

There’s no problem due to your age, but I don’t think this product is a good choice for anyone, mainly because of the free trial scam that’s easy to get caught up in. Let me know what your goals are, and I’ll make the right recommendation for you.

Alpha Fuel did not work for me. I used it for three weeks. What is most disappointing is there lack of honesty in the way they promote their product. Paying $89.00 for a bottle of capsules is outrageous, especially when other clients say it takes at least two bottles before you notice any improvement.Never give your credit card out on a trial, especially if you’re busy. After 14 days you’ll end up looking at your bank statement seeing a deduction of $89.00 from your account.Last but not least, the company uses professional actors to promote their product rather then actual clients.Companies like this should be contacted by the Attorney General for misleading the public.
